#FixTheCountry demonstrators to petition market women, hawkers, others on August 4

A Co-Convenor of the #FixTheCountry protest, Arimiyaw Wusama has disclosed their August 4, 2021 march will alter the status quo for all demonstrations.

As practised in almost every demonstration, petitions –grievances that protestors want to be addressed –are usually presented to authorities with the hope to get them redressed.

But Mr. Wusama says the practice has yielded no results over the years, the reason the August 4 revolution is going to address its petition to the ordinary citizens.

He says the challenges as codified for the protest would be explained to the hawkers on the street and market women to appreciate the need to conscientise their minds for a rebranded Ghana.

“Tomorrow we are going to petition the tomato sellers, onion sellers, hawkers and everyone on the streets. We have always petitioned presidents and the problems have remained”

“We want you to know why you should have a change of mind towards the leadership we have so that we all build a better Ghana together,” he told Captain Smart on the YouTube live-streamed Smart Show on the eve of the protest, Tuesday, August 3, 2021, keenly monitored by Ghanasonline.com.

Meanwhile, 2020 Independent Presidential candidate, Kofi Koranteng, adding his voice on the show explained how the retired brains of the current leadership exemplify their deeds.
He noted people above certain ages have tired brains and bequeathing certain responsibilities to them is a disaster.

Mr. Koranteng therefore called on all to come on board to make the protest a mammoth.

“At age 70 and above, you’re supposed to die because that’s what God gave us. Your brain is on retirement. So there are certain decisions that become difficult for you to take. That’s why we should help these brains to sleep, so that when we push them away, we bring people with refreshed ideas to help the country,” he indicated.
